Ché Araña
Cri-Cri
Hey Spider
At the bottom of the rickety barrel
Illuminated by a ray of sun
The spider dances tango in its threads
To the chords of the bandoneon
Don Cat imitates the instrument
Stretching a little paper lantern
And his tail sways with feeling
Keeping the rhythm of that dance
Hey spider!
Dance skillfully
You have to count
Three little steps
Dragging
Forward and backward
Among the worn splinters
Left from the old barrel
The clientele peeks out arrogantly
And tiptoes into it
Shiny bored cockroaches
Tired aphids from biting
Plus other slick vermin
Gather to revel
Hey spider!
Dance skillfully
You have to count
Three little steps
Dragging
Forward and backward
Hey spider!
Dance skillfully
You have to count
Three little steps
Dragging
Forward and backward
